    A way round it would be to post that you have a FOY code for someone and the first person to Inbox you will get it. This way, you know who got the code was a registered MSE user and not just a lurker.

    No sign of the big change happening yet. Does anyone know if FOY codes will be around after the change ?



    Yes that is one way.

    My own personal feeling is that I will not give any codes to lurkers.

    I've have the same misgivings - it is disheartening when people swipe without giving thanks (and if they aren't signed up how will they pay us back codes when they win?)

    I decided against sending all as PM because -

    a) I'm pretty sure it's against the MSE policy to ask for/offer codes over PM without posting them.

    b) If we did we could alienate new active sharing members (if aforementioned new members are our referrals then we'll cut off our nose to spite the face!) - ending up with a group of wonder regs - POPPYOSCAR, Cally, BristolBloke Apple Crumble and many other great members handing codes around to each other

    How about we move to a discrete location (ie. on an old expired thread with tons of posts on "gone but not forgotten" or similar) That way we can exchange codes without fear of lurkers grabbing them, not break any rules about PMing codes - we can then invite newer members into our "consortium" once they've shown willing to share with community?

    If someone want to set something like that up, please PM me the details and I'm there! That is if we still have such codes after update.........:shocked:

    I am not always online and many times have actually missed FOY codes that have been posted. Therefore the chance of me actually being the first person to PM someone else who has a code free is very Slim.

    You forget that once a person posts on a thread, that thread is then bumped back up to the top and becomes active again.

    How to kill a thread ? Have a secret clicky group somewhere that only select members are allowed to join .. oops, isn't that exactly what you don't want to happen (see your B. point above)
    Example - Swagbucks thread, the regular members have all moved off somewhere else and the thread is dying very slowly.

    I'm talking about tagging onto existing or creating new thread somewhere like here -http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/forumdisplay.php?f=206

    I've seen a few chat groups here do similar - it's out of the way and nobody's really looking for new posts. This thread can stay as it is here giving plenty of chances to invite helpful newbies over to the place where we post our codes.

    Gifthulk has nothing to do with Food that has gone off so the board guides would move it straight away

    When I've used a GH code from here I have always pressed the thanks button. If it said the code is for 3 people and the post has 3 'thank yous' then I presume that the code has been used up.

    It's coming online very very slowly

    If you have posted a photo on the Gifthulk facebook page, I would check out the banner across the bottom as it would appear they have used members photos

    Not impressed with them putting the photos in a Flickr album to host them
